Fresh off an All-Star performance at the Grammy Awards, which featured John Mayer and Jeff Lynne, Ed Sheeran has announced dates for a North American summer tour. Sheeran will play 33 shows in the US and Canada, starting May 6 in Austin, Texas and concluding July 3 at Summerfest in Milwaukee.
While Sheeran has accomplished such feats as selling out Madison Square Garden in the past, his stops on the upcoming tour are not designed to hit the biggest arenas in the area.
During August and September of 2014, Sheeran went on an arena tour which had an average price of $139.42 on the secondary market.

Instead of playing a place like Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, Sheeran will instead play The Mann Center For Performing Arts. The most expensive date came at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena with an average price of $247.71 and a get-in price of $81. Likewise, instead of hitting many of Manhattan’s stored music venues, Sheeran will play two New York City shows at Forest Hills Stadium in Queens.
